Dear friend,

Tonight, while we were having our first volunteer event for the campaign, I saw this:

Never once in my nearly 20 years of public service have I seen bribery just “happen.”

It feels like every week, there is a new scandal, a new resignation of key leadership, a new indictment. New Yorkers are losing faith in their government and their institutions, and that erodes further with every new headline.

We deserve better and that’s why I am running: to make sure our neighbors get the strong, competent, and ethical leadership they deserve and can depend on.

It is going to be a fight, but I am not afraid. Together, we’ve taken on the toughest battles and won. I am asking you to join me in the fight on this campaign.

Join us and become a Founding Donor today:

This campaign isn’t fueled by foreign governments or complex schemes — it’s powered by everyday New Yorkers like you. Can you give today?

When I think back to this night, I am not going to remember the tweets. I am going to remember the parents who spoke to me about raising their kids in this city. I am going to remember my team working all day to help us reach our goals. I am going to remember the volunteers who came from Coney Island and Staten Island all the way to Queens to make sure our message reaches as many voters as possible.

It’s a new day in New York. Join us.

In Solidarity,

Jessica Ramos
